LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
BCBGLABY.— At some time night before
last the tailoring store of J. Van Orden, just
above Tenth on J street, was burglarized,
and about SCO in value of clothing and mate
rials taken. Entrance was effected through
a door opening out upon a high back porch.
A ladder was brought by the thieves from
the adjoining premises, by which means the
porch was reached. A portion of the door
panel was bored out near the fastening,
through which tbe bolt was drawn back and
entrance made. Much care was exercised by
the burglars not to disturb any roomers near
by, who might be anxious to Bleep, as was i
evidenced by the floor being well covered with
overalls taken from the shelves, to prevent
the sound of their steps being heaid. They
were also placed over the porch floor, where
the store desk was taken and rifled of its con
tents. None of the overalls were thought to
]<c missing, probably htquiimi they didn't fit,
as several pairs presented signs of having
been tried on, as shown by the legs being left
partly turned wrong side out.
Department or Public Instucction.— j
The new State Superintendent of Public In
struction, Y. M. Campbell, remarks in very
complimentary terms in reference to his
predecessor, from the condition he found the
affairs in his department upon assuming
charge, stating that all business of the office, !
including correspondence, was completed in a j
most systematic manner. The rooms, how- |
ever, occupied for the Department of Public ;
Instruction, have been used continuously so
long that they are sadly in need of general
renovation to make them suitable for the pur
poses for which they are now set apart, either
as being desirable for occupants or as a pre
sentable appearance for the credit of the
State. This department is continuously vis
ited not only by the leading educational and !
representative people from all parts of this !
State, but also very frequently from other !
States, and it should be placed in a condition i
and maintained in such manner as to be cred
itable to the State.

A New Grove. — Superintendent Pratt
yesterday had nearly 500 young trees planted
just north of the new depot. They were
planted closely together ami are intended to
break the force of the wind, serve in shut
tine out the view of the wood-sheds, and will
in time bec»me a dense and pleasant grove.
The trees are cf three varieties — eucalyptus, J
walnut . and catalpa. The latter tree is not
widely known here, being of comparatively
recently introduction. It is indigenous in
the southern parts of the United .States, where
it frequently attaint an bight of fifty feet, and
is cultivated in some of the northern portions,
dwindling down, however, to a mere shrub.
In this section it is likely to become a highly
ornamental tree.

EXTRA SESSION.
THERE WILL BE NO CALLED SESSION OF
THE LEGISLATURE.
Governor Perkins Emphatically States that
He Will Not, Under Any Emergency
Arising Out or Failure to Legis
late, Call an Extra Session.
The impression has gained currency that
an extra session of the Legislature would be
I necessary to the completion of the legislative
j business demanded by existing exigencies.
J Even before th| assembling of the Legisla
| ture the opinion was current that the consti
i tutional limitation of one hundred day« would
j not be sufficient for the completion of the
business which would come before the Legis-
I lature. This opinion was due no doubt to
j the prevalent idea that the adoption of the
j Constitution would work such changes in the
! judicial and i evenue systems and so disrupt
the Codes as to make the entire remodeling
;of all laws necessary. Whatever may have
been 1 the source of the opinion, certain it is
that the impression li abroad that
AS EXTBA LEGISLATIVE SESSION
Is among the things certain to occur. There j
is no evidence that this impression ha' had
any influence to retard, delay or obstruct
i legislation, but as the question of an extra
j session is one of live, public interest, and as
< the entire question of an extra session is de
; pendent upon the will of a single individual,
j it was a matter of easy accomplishment to
! ascertain whether there was or was not to be
such called session. In pursuit of a satis
factory solution, either in the affirmative or
negative, of this question, a representative of
1 the Record-Union yesterday sought an in
' terview with his Kxcellency, Governer Per
kin-, and the result of that interview is here- :
i with presented :
SO EXTRA SESSION.
Rep. — Governor, the opinion has been
for some time current that an extra session of
! the Legislature will be called after the close |
iof the one hundred days. Does this opinion j
t arise from, or was any encouragement given
' the idea by yourself ?
Answer — I have not at any time encour
, aged the idea that an extra session would be
! called.
Question lt is, then, not your ' present
! intention to call an extra session of the Legis- i
I lature ?
A. — It 16 not my present intention, and will !
not be even my future intention, to call such j
extra session. I cannot conceive of any such [
contingency that will, or may arise, which j
would in the slightest degree change ray '
i present determination not to call an extra !
j session of the Legislature.
AN EXTRA SESSION ENTIRELY IMPROBABLE.
Q. — Then you do not think that any con
tingency will arise which will make the hold
ing of an extra session necessary '!
A. — I have already said that I can con
ceive of no exigency which will justify me in
calling such session. >
, Q. — The opinion has generally obtained ]
that the necessary legislation could not be I
! enacted within the constitutional limit of |
! one hundred days — that to produce conform- j
I ity of all the existing statutes with the
provisions of the Constitution is a task of
such magnitude as not to b; within the
possibility of accomplishment in the time
limited by the Constitution.
A. la my opinion the magnitude of the
duty devolving upon the present Legislature >
j has been exaggerated in popular estimation. I
| It is true that the provisions of the Constitu- i
I tion work radical changes in many depart
| ments of the State Government, and make
j necessary the readjustment of a large portion
of existing statutes, but, as I view it, the
I great essential duty now devolving upon
the Legislature may be divided into
three parts. It is necessary, first,
that the judicial system shall be
placed in running order. Second, the reve
j nue laws should be passed so that the revenue
j system of the State could go into effect at
once ; the necessity of this second depart- '
ment of legislation is most immediate
and important. Third, the passage of j
the general appropriation bill for the
maintenance of the State Government. j
These three things are susceptible of j
accomplishment within the constitutional j
limitation. With their accomplishment all |
the pressing exigencies of legislation will .
have been met. With the system of public |
justice thoroughly set in motion ; with the j
j necessary revenue system devised and worked |
out, and with means provided for carrying on |
the State Government^ all oth:r questions ;
and elements of legislative requirements be
come secondary and subordinate. It should
also he remembered that only about eight
months intervene between the close of the !
present Legislature and the time for the as- I
sembling of tbe next.
Question — But suppose this " legislation
which you deem necessary should not be en
acted ?
UNMISTAKABLE r-ECLAUATIOX.
A. — In answer to your suggestion I am not
for the first time considering what my course |
would be under circumstances named by you.
1 have already given the subject due consid- |
eration, and therefore in the answer which I
shall make will place my views and my de
termination in unmistakable language. I
will not, under any exigency that may or can i
arise out of my failure to accomplish legisla- .
tiou by this session of the Legislature, call an
extra session of that body. Even if the ap
propriation bills — necessary to carry on the
State Government — should not pass within
the present session, I would not for that
reason call an extra session of the Legisla
ture. In short, there is nothing more fixed or
unalterably settled in my determination than
that no extra session of the Legislature will
be called.
A SETTLED DETERMINATION.
Q. — Then I am to understand unequivocally
that by this statement you desire to set at
the whole question as to whether there will
or will not be an extra session of the Leg
islature ?
A. — I do wish to place it at rest, with the
distinct understanding that no such extra ses
! sion will, under any contingency, be called. I
d'« not mean to be understood as underesti
mating the importance of providing for the
organization of certain municipal and other
local governments', and passing law» on other
subjects which ought, and probably will be,
dealt with. But I have indicated the leading
and most important subjects upon which the
public convenience and expectation are cen
tered. Nor do I wish to be understood as in
timating that the Legislature is not proceed
ing with its duty with all diligence. There
| i.«, in my judgment, a decided preponderance i
in each ' house of industrious, earnest mem
bers, who are alive to the great work before I
! them. Of course you ore aware that
the Legislature miy constitutionally sit
any number of days, only that per |
diem is denied them after the lapse of one
hundred dava.
The subject-matter being exhausted by
these emphatic declarations of the Governor,
the conversation was not further continued,
| and the representative of the Kecord-Uxiox,
• with acknowledgment for the courtesy shown,
' retired to place the result of his conference
1 with the Governor before the public
Metropolitan Theati-r.— The "Davene
Troupe," the " Boseri Ballet," and the
" Great American Four," appeared again j
last evening. The performance of these lead- :
ing divisions of Majcnire'l variety troupe are |
of a superior order. The first and last-named
especially awaken much interest, the one by j
■ its wealth of fun and jollity and its remark- !
I able activity, and the other by its great dar- \
ing a*:d rare ayility. To-night a change of
programme is promised.. The troupe is one \
of the best of variety companies, and gives j
an entertainment wbieh call* for no mental
effort on the part of the spectator, and affords
him ample ■ opportunity for the ) heartiest j
; laughter and the most exuberant mirth.
--j Brought Back.— Last week Antone Greg-
I ory, a Spaniard, severely chastised ■ colored
damsel named Cora Podson. She made com
plaint to the police and he was' arrested, but
i when the case came up for trial the remorse
ful damsel had hied herself away to the Bay,
' to avoid giving testimony against her perse
j cutor. The police, however, learned of her
j whereabouts, an.! officer Dolan went down
I yesterday, brought her back aDd locked her
!up last night. She will probably testify
against him to-day, and then, woman-like,
pay his tine as well as her own.
Mineral Land Patents.— The following
patents for mineral lands were received at
the United States Land Office in this city
! yesterday. Parties holding duplicate receipts
: therefore, on surrendering the same, will re
! ceive their patents : No. 30<>2, for Lamphear
! quartz mine, claimed by Wm. Wells ; No.
! 3067, for Scheel placer mine, claimed by J.
Scheel : No. 3079. for San Domingo placer
mine, claimed by I* C. Harris ; No. 3693, for
Weber placer mine, claimed by Chas. Weber.
Wanted Liberty. — a sealed
wood car that had arrived the night before,
! and was left standing on I street, was found
i with a hole broken through one side. Evi
i dently some one had stolen a ride, and becom
ing cold without the fire which he dared not
I kindle, had used a heavy stick of wood to
liberate himself.
Plxasakt Social. — A very pleasant social
party wan given by Sparrow Smith and his
; lady last evening to friends at their residence,
I oorner of Fifteenth and N streets.
THE SARSFIELD GUARD'S ANNUAL BALL.
The SarsfielJ Guard, Company G, First
; Battalion of Infantry, N. G.C., CapUlnT. W.
j Sheehau, gave its teeth annual ciinpliment
! ary ball at Turn Vercin Hall last night.
■ The ball was given in honor of S. \V. B»cku«,
! the new Adjutant-General of the National
j Guard of Califoiuia. The hall was tastefully
| decorated, the drapery being confined wholly
| to the national color*, which quite covered
| the walls of the hall. On the stage at either
: end the colors of the vaiio'is companies
j of California Volunteers in the late war
were grouped, supported by stacks of arms.
j The giand march began at 9:15, and was par
j ticipated in by about one hundred couples.
The march was headed by General Backus
and lady, under escort of Captain Sheehan
and lady. The dances consisted of twenty
! selection* 1 , in two division.', with an inter
mission for »upp?r ( Before the first fjuadril'e
was completed the number la the hall was
swelled fully one-half, ami by 10 o'clock the
ball was pronounced one of the largest ever
civen in Turner Hall. It wai es
sentially a citizen-soldiery re
union. Plainness of attire was the
rule, and the restraint and formality
noticeable in the full-dress ball was entirely
absent. Gen. J. F. Sheehan and most of his
newly uppointedstatf, Col. Haytnond and mem
bers of his 6tatf, the officers of the artillery
and f fussarr, ana of the attached companies
of the infantry battalion, and great
numbers of the privates of the several
military compauies of the city, were present.
Most of the military men appeared in stuff
or company uniforms, and the effect in the
ball-roim of this mingling of showy t-uits
with the more sober attire of othtr ((nests
was very pleasing. A.-j'de from the dancers
on the nuor come two hundred guests of the
Sarttield's were present as spectators, and
filled nearly all the available space in the hall
and gallery. Among the guests were many
Senators and Assemblymen, Stateoflicials and
attaches of the lvegislature and departments.
The management of the ball was conducted
under these committees : Arrangements — V.
Flaherty, James .McNiff, J. J. Camtihe'l,
Frederick Neary, John Dase ; Floor Direc
tor — Captain T. >V. Sheehan ; Floor Manag

Ths music for the ball was furnished by an
orchestra selected from the First lufantry
Battalion Baud.
Iv the lower hall of the building six long
tables were spread by Henry Fisher, caterer,
and supplied with plain, substantial dishes,
in good variety, for a luncheon, a regular
I supper not being attempted. The ball was
] an invitation one, no tickets were sold, and
I every person present realized iv the fullest
I sense the compliment by which he or she was
I enabled to be present and enjoy what was de
cidedly one of the most popular and enjoy
able of entertainments. One of the notable
features of the ball was the special attention
the members of the Guard paid their
guests, and the constant effort the members
made to secure the fullest possible enjoyment
j for every guest. The company has every
! reason to lie proud of its success last evening,
j and General Backus will scarcely be able to
refer to a handsomer compliment during his
term than that which was paid him so simply
I and heartily last evening by Company G.
SUB ROSA.
A popular young gentleman engaged in
bookkeeping in an establishment not far from
Eighth and J streets, having concluded to
take to himself a partner from the Hay, for
better or for worse, thought the " properest
I thing to do " would be to keep the conteui
-1 plated nuptials, and the fact of the marriage
' itself a secret, assisted always nevertheless by
his spouse. He accordingly, in a, quiet way,
rented rooms in a goodly mansion not far
: from the Nathan building, and having fur
! nished their, in a mspiner corresponding to
i his ideas of the occasion (in doing which, as
I the tirm from which lie purchased knew him,
j he ordered the furniture "for a frieud") he
| quietly, but with premeditated purpose,
took passage for the Bay by the shortest
route ami fastest train. Here, in :in unosten
tatious and even private manner, the nuptial
services were performed, and in due time the
happy couple returned to this city without
regard to speed of train, but arriving at a
propitious tiiue, when suspicious movements
and events are lea.vt luble to be noticed, took
themselves from the depot to the newly
furnished apartments, in ;>n unobtrusive,
"go-as-you-please " combination, and settled
down, with carefully-adjusted shutter", be
lieving themselves poseesaed of a secret be
yond other mortal ken. The following day
the book-keeper, with an innocent and
unsuspecting mien, attended the reg
ular duties of his office, and at night
returned to love's secluded arbor, dividing
the bliss of their new relation with
the enjoyment of the well-kept secret. While
thus enjoying the evening iv thur new home
(a newly-married man always remains at
borne evenings), numerous feet were heard on
ihe stairway, and being followed by a rap at
their door, was answered by the newly-made
husband presenting himself in a carefully,
half-concealed manner at the door, where he
found hitnfelf confronted by a large party of
personal friends, who immediately took pos
session, and having made themselves entirely
familiar in their own way wi'.h the new
couple and their surroundings, set them
selves down as best they could fiud
room, and deterndned upon remaining for an
evening call. Finding the secrecy of their
sanctum had been thus unceremoniously in
vaded and that it would not pay, after all, to
keep the secret any longer, the young ho>t
and hostess made the impromptu visit an ex
ceedingly pleasant one by transforming the
scene into a general reception and set
ting out a collation hastily improvised.
The enjoyment of the party soon brought
about the small hour 3of night, and after
showing the visitors down the stairs, upon re
turning to their no longer secret apar tments,

Lecture. — Professor George \V. Minns de
livered his Brcond lecture last evening at the

ject "The Humorous Poetry of James Rns

I ence. The recitations" of poems from his au-
I thor were well rendered and closely followed

Wheat — The prevailing opinion is that the mar
ket has about touched bottom. Whether this be so
or not, certain it is that the feeling on 'change was
more cheerful than yesterday, and the outlook ap
parently Justine* '«; ■- condition. We know of more
than one holder wbowOßJd not to-day part with his
Wheat at a figure which he might have been induced
to take two. -four hours ago. The disengaged
fleet is beine augmented by new arrivals, and a
further reduction in freights is but a reasonable
supposition under the circumstances. Private dis
patches ai said to report the Liverpool market as
more favorable to seller*. The reported sa eson
